Yessir. We need more people to work with their hands and provide things people need. Kudo's to you. I wear a cloth hat but still really appreciate seeing this. A good day to you sir.
I am an amateur leatherworker and I have been making various leather hats... I would love to learn to make felt hats... Thanks for keeping the trade alive...
Great hats. Love the craftsmanship and the pride you take in your work, but why did you say “approximately 48% of my time.” Sounds like you know exactly how much time. Love your videos.
I was under the impression that Hatters were also called Milliners.🧐 In any Case, those are some lovely Hats!🤠 (Just checked, Hatters are for Men, Milliners are for Ladies.)
He’s a craftsman. Full respect but I also recognize that a machine can press one perfect every time a lot faster. So while I hope rich people can buy the craftsman’s work I gotta go with the old affordable.
The custom 100x rabbit fur felt hats start at $350, while the custom 100x beaver fur felts start at $650. However, the hats are water resistant and made from high quality materials. “You're buying a piece of wearable art,” Jacobs assured. “It's something you can wear for a lifetime.”
Impressive 🤠
I've never seen a hatter at work til now
Me neither! Would love to watch him make a hat that I could buy. It would be a great piece of equipment, and for storytime around the campfire!
Says it's complicated then makes it look easy. A true professional.
That is gorgeous.
Bro come on this shite looks awful.
I'm really glad to see that there are still people doing this.
Dude, you have serious talent.
Beautiful Craftsmanship!
You’re Blessed🤗
A craftsman indeed!
Love to see such craftsmanship in a young man like Mr. Jacobs.
This guy is amazing. Wish I could afford one of his hats
I'm wagering it's probably pretty expensive if this much labor is going into it. But, it's probably also something that's going to last.
Very interesting!! Thank you for sharing!! I’ve never seen that done before. Very good!
It’s amazing that you do all of this by hand!
Nice work! It's great to see people not letting old school trades die!
Tons of respect for this man and his almost lost art. Keep it up.
Oh cool a milliner video. Was not expecting that at all but I love it.
I have a couple of Stetson Open Roads in 6x and a Rodeo King 10x felt...absolutely fell in love with felt hats, and I want to learn this craft
That's really awesome. Too bad hats like that are not more common. Something handmade like that will last a lifetime.
That absolutely awesome. I never knew it was that difficult. Keep up the great work I can’t wait to see more.
This man is an absolute perfectionist and artist I would love to get him to work on some of my hats
Hats off to you, bro👍
This is so cool. Thank you for giving us all a glimpse into the art of making hats!
Yessir. We need more people to work with their hands and provide things people need. Kudo's to you. I wear a cloth hat but still really appreciate seeing this. A good day to you sir.

Very impressive. Most cowboy hats come out looking wavy
Wow dude, just wow.
Making stuff with our hands is a wonderful and rewarding thing.
Great craftsmanship 👍
Being a card carrying member of the size 8 club and not being able to find western hats that fit right, I’d love to have this man make one
I just love crafts people. Such a beautiful thing to know how to do.
Good craftsmanship is always impressive
I'm always impressed by the skills needed for this kind of work.

That's a good trade. Master it and you will do great things
Love the skill and craftsmanship
Great hats. Love the craftsmanship and the pride you take in your work, but why did you say “approximately 48% of my time.” Sounds like you know exactly how much time. Love your videos.

NGL, that pretty freaking cool.
Passion at work love to see tradesmen doing their thing

I’d love to own a hat built by this man.
I trust him for some reason.

Thank you for carrying on a time-honored tradition
Sir, you are an artist

There are plenty of non animal fabrics in this world to use!!!!
I love watching how things are made it's so interesting, thanks for sharing your craft.
Nice work 👏
As a leather worker, I can’t even get my brain around hat making! You’re a craftsman!
You got my subscription.
Bro, you are gifted.
Awesome work.
Would love to buy one
Wow that is beautiful and awesome!!
Great craftsmanship. If it’s tremendously technical it shouldn’t require “feel,” just following the specs. You’re more artist than technician!
Eldridge Jacobs is a cool, mellow dude!
😎
Glad to see this art is still being done
Wow! Marvelous!
Very nice craft you have there ! I’d love to learn more about this art .
I never particularly wanted a felt hat but these look really nice
Beautiful hats
I never knew I needed to see this but I did. Thank you. That is amazing work.
Well done, clearly quality work.
Dude!!!! You have the coolest job! See if you can partner with the Arizona Ghostriders. I’m sure Santee will be happy to hear from you!
that is some serious craftsmanship!
Amazing crafmanship Sir!
I used to do millinery as a hobby.
That's beautiful ❤
One I don’t see too often is a bricktop. Sort of like a teardrop but more square. Could you do a demonstration in the future pal.
What a skill!! Who knew?😮
I knew
I like it great quality work glad the traditions live on
Love the craft your work is beautiful
Very impressive, well done!🍻
Hats off to you sir.
He's a mad man
I wish my face and head suited a hat. These are beautiful
hatters, shoemakers... it takes a loooot of learning and skill to master this. Keep up the good work !
Beautiful work!
Great profession for great tools. Keep up the good work. Not to many of your kind around anymore.
You seem very well adjusted.
Jk😊
Can you do a tour of your shop?
Beautiful work man
Pherrall would be proud
